020 7871 2569Frequently asked questions
I've just moved into a flat in Bermondsey — should I change the locks?+
Yes, it is sensible. You have no way of knowing how many keys previous tenants, cleaners or tradespeople still hold, so a fresh lock change gives you control of who can get in. We can swap the nightlatch, replace a worn mortice deadlock or fit a new euro cylinder on a uPVC door, and we confirm the full price on the phone before we set off.
How much will a residential lock change cost?+
The final figure depends on the type of lock, how many doors are involved, the parts needed, the distance we travel and whether you call during the day or late at night. There is a call-out charge, and we make the complete, up-front price clear on the phone before anyone comes out — so there are no surprises when we arrive.
My uPVC door has stopped locking properly — does the whole thing need replacing?+
Usually not. A uPVC door that will not lock is often a misaligned multipoint mechanism, a worn gearbox or a tired euro cylinder rather than the whole door. We diagnose which part has failed and replace only what is needed, fitting an anti-snap, TS007 3-star cylinder where extra security against lock snapping is wanted.
I'm locked out — what should I do before calling you?+
Check for a spare key with a neighbour, partner or family member, and try any back or patio door that might be unlatched. If you still cannot get in, call us; we come to you and, in most cases, open the door using non-destructive methods so your lock keeps working. We will ask you to confirm you are the lawful occupier before we start.
Can you reset a Defiant, Honeywell or Master combination lock code?+
We can advise on and work with keyless and combination hardware where it forms part of a door's locking, including resetting a Defiant lock change code, a Honeywell door lock code or a Master lock change combination following the manufacturer's own procedure. If a unit is faulty or the code is lost beyond recovery, we will replace it with a suitable alternative and explain the options first.
Do you fit insurance-approved locks?+
Many home insurers ask for a BS3621 five-lever mortice deadlock on timber doors and a TS007-rated cylinder on uPVC and composite doors. We can supply and fit locks that meet these standards, and we will tell you what your policy is likely to require before you commit.
How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Bermondsey?+
We are a mobile service covering Bermondsey and the surrounding area around the clock. We send a locksmith straight away and are usually with you in about 30 minutes, though exact timing depends on traffic and where you are within SE1 and SE16.
Are your locksmiths insured?+
Yes, our technicians are fully insured, as well as trained, experienced and skilled at working on British doors and locks. You will always deal with our own team, and we explain what we are doing and why at every stage.
